Get ready to kick off your evening downtown with Jumpstart to Third Thursday, a new initiative leading into the long running Third Thursday concert series. This pre-concert event is all about boosting foot traffic and encouraging the community to shop local, linger longer, and enjoy more of what downtown Jamestown has to offer.

From 4:30 to 6:30 PM, local businesses are invited to join the excitement by:
- Staying open a little later to catch post-work crowds and early concertgoers.
- Offering special promotions.
- Creating interactive or unique in-store experiences.
- Hosting sidewalk sales.

Businesses are encouraged to register so we can help promote them as part of Jumpstart to Third Thursday! There is no cost for business participation.

Whether folks are just getting off work or heading downtown early for the concerts, Jumpstart to Third Thursday creates the perfect opportunity to explore, connect, and support local business.

Downtown Jamestown is the place to be Third Thursdays May through September.

Concert details for each month can be found on the Jamestown Renaissance Corporation website for the most up-to-date info on performers, locations, and more.
